bonnaroo-crowdMANCHESTER, TN – From June 13-16, 2013, 90,000+ people will gather for Bonnaroo in Manchester, Tennessee, 60 miles southeast of Nashville. Bonnaroo attendees will be livin’ high on the hog at this year’s festival, thanks in part to one of the food offerings that will be available.

The Fatback Collective — a growing group of chefs, restaurateurs and entrepreneurs whose group is named after the fatty cut of meat that comes from the top of a pig — will roast a whole hog each day. Festival-goers will also be able to hang with the pitmasters and glean valuable swine intel.
